do you have any clue about Abbot districts? most of them are large urban towns, and smaller very dense poor towns

Check out the total compensation packages of some of the Abbott's superintendents. You'll blow a gasket.

Good point!! Also look at the turnover rate of the superintendents, since Abbot. Paterson has gone through at least 3, that have been asked to leave.
Abbott also funds daycare centers, giving out money like candy to unqualified people that need only have a professional on staff, on paper, not working in the facility. It is horrendous

not to be in a position of defending corslime, but it was the liberal activist NJ supreme court who imposed the concept of abbot districts on us, that is just another reason why you need to be careful about who you vote for, their friends whom they appoint to judgeships, and to lead agencies can be more dangerous than the person you voted for. Note obama's wacky leftist buddies, the propaganda push will be that obama is a nice, normal guy, but lift up his skirt and check out his associations and who is the power and money behind him and it' scary what you'll find

And that's the only one. The rest of Abbott towns are truly poor. Hoboken is very unique is that sense.
